Nyima looked at the girl dumbfounded, she got that she really wanted to be part of the conversation, in fact she felt a little bad for Rayn and Mizuki. They were after all unnecessary wheels in her and Zhou's conversation. Her look shifted into a slight glare when she mentioned how they were late of an appointment and had to go. She acted as if her and her brother's reunion was nothing but a hinderance. She understood, that the girl didn't really care about their reunion but that didn't stop it from being a big deal. She didn't even care that she was supposed to be seeing the Avatar, in fact, she didn't give to flying hoots. The girl could walk the five feet in broad daylight to the building without her brother. She had questions about the North and the answers didn't involve the words, I can't speak for your family. She balled her hands up into fists when Rayn spoke up, stating that they were probably going to finding the Avatar, most likely trying to keep the girl there a little longer. She took a deep breath and calmed herself, preventing herself from punching the girl for her disrespect of the moment her brother and she were having. She looked at Rayn and smiled slightly, giving him a small nod of thanks. She looked back at her brother, "You did... Well it looks like you had the right idea... You found me...." She stole a glance at Mizuki before looking at her brother. She was looking for answers that she cared about not some summary of the politics of a nation she hardly connected herself to anymore. She was blunt with her question, not wanting to even give the girl a chance to steer the conversation away from it, "How are mom and dad?... Are they healthy? Well?... Do they hate me? Do... Do they even talk about me?"

Zenji was about to bow on the ground like the rest, when she noticed the clear look of shock and distress of Masuto's face. She was sure that it was disrespectful in some way not to bow before the Avatar when he was being named but she wasn't going to get on the ground and allow him to have a panic attack. She grabbed his arm and smiled, "Hey... It's okay..."

She held his arm for a moment before she released it, "When Avatar Aang found out he was the Avatar he ran and hid himself in an iceberg for a hundred years. You're already taking it better than him and look what he achieved for us."

She noticed one of the White Lotus looking at her, clearly not impressed by her lack of bowing and slight disrespect of Aang. She ignored it though, Masuto needed her standing and making him feel better. She took his hand that held the stuffed Air Bison she had given him and held it up. She looked at him with a small smile on her face, "Need a cuddle buddy?"

She grinned and came to terms with something he might be freaking out about. Air. She gave him a soft smile, "As an airbender... I wouldn't mind helping you... I'm not a master but I could teach you until you find a real one... I wouldn't mind..." She shrugged, "I also know some hide out that we could go to, that are bound to have a master."

She squeezed his hand along with the bison, "No Avatar has done it alone... And neither will you... Now, it is just a matter of making your team."
